- Additional information
- This paper details the hydrodynamic interaction between two vessels of different size in waves. The results are important as previous studies have focused on the interaction of two vessels of comparable size, and the data are therefore not applicable to the situation where a small vessel is launched or recovered from/to a larger one. The results of this investigation can therefore help the development of automated launch and recovery systems to reduce the risk of this operation to both manned and unmanned vessels.
